Garden of the Gods Sewer Line Repair on the West Side

Affordable Rooter does sewer line repair in Garden of the Gods, CO for the homes tucked between 30th Street, Mesa Road and the park itself. We're family-owned, not a franchise, and we've been fixing sewer lines around Colorado Springs since 2000.

Houses here range from 1950s Pleasant Valley bungalows to newer places up on the ridge. The pipe under each one is a different age and material, and the ground it sits in isn't always friendly to a shovel.

  1. Pleasant Valley Bungalows With Original Sewer Pipe

    A lot of the small homes in Pleasant Valley, the neighborhood where Camp Creek runs down the concrete channel along 31st Street, still drain through the sewer line they were built with. That usually means clay pipe with joints every couple of feet.

    After 60-plus years, some of those joints have opened up. A sewer camera inspection shows which ones, so a repair can target the bad section instead of the whole yard.

  2. Repairing Sewer Lines on Sloped West Side Lots

    Plenty of lots near the park sit on a grade. A steep run can actually drain too fast, leaving solids behind while the water races ahead. A flat stretch at the bottom of a slope can hold waste. Both show up on camera.

    When a sloped line is cracked or shifted along most of its length, a spot repair won't hold. That's when full sewer line replacement earns its cost, and we'll walk you through the footage that shows why.

  3. Digging Near Red Rock and Shale Around Garden of the Gods

    The same red sandstone and shale that stand up in the park sit just under some yards on this side of town. A trench can go along fine and then hit rock a few feet down. That's slow, careful digging.

    So sewer line repair in Garden of the Gods starts with finding the exact break and its depth. We'd rather open one small, accurate hole than chase a problem across a rocky yard.

  4. Your Sewer Service Line and Colorado Springs Utilities

    Colorado Springs Utilities owns the sewer main in the street. The service line from your house out to that main, connection included, is the homeowner's to maintain. That's the pipe we repair.

    If a city crew already checked the main and said the problem is on your side, a camera from your cleanout is the next step. It tells you whether you need a cleaning, a repair or a new line.

  5. Pine and Juniper Roots in West Side Sewer Pipe

    Ponderosa pines, junipers and old shade trees on these lots all go after water, and a leaky sewer joint is an easy target. Roots get in small and grow into a mat that snags everything that goes by.

    We cut roots out with a cable machine, and regular drain line cleaning keeps them down for a while. How often depends on the pipe material, the length of the run, its age and its condition. For heavy buildup, hydro jetting clears the pipe wall back to bare surface.

  6. Sewer Scopes for Garden of the Gods Home Sales

    Homes near the park sell fast, and buyers almost always order a sewer scope on a house this age. If you're the agent or the seller, it helps to know what's in the line before the inspector does. We work with real estate agents on exactly that.

    Got a scary scope report and a big repair bid? We'll review the video and give you a second opinion before you agree to a price or a credit.

  7. Upfront Quotes and a Lowest Price Guarantee Near the Park

    We don't quote sewer line repair in Garden of the Gods sight unseen. A plumber comes out, runs the camera and gives you the price before anything starts. Sewer and water line repair and replacement are covered by our lowest price guarantee. We take all major credit cards, checks and cash.

Garden of the Gods Sewer Line Questions

Do you do sewer line repair in Garden of the Gods?

Yes. We work the neighborhoods around Garden of the Gods, including Pleasant Valley and the Mesa Road area, plus Old Colorado City and Manitou Springs.

How much does sewer line repair in Garden of the Gods cost?

We quote on site after a camera inspection, since depth, rock and slope change the job. Sewer line repair and replacement are covered by our lowest price guarantee.

Is the sewer line my responsibility or the city's?

Colorado Springs Utilities maintains the main in the street. The service line from your house to the main, including the connection, is the homeowner's responsibility.

Will rock in my yard make the repair more expensive?

It can, because digging through rock takes longer. Pinpointing the break on camera first keeps the dig as small as possible.

My house is from the 1950s. What kind of sewer pipe does it have?

Most homes that age have clay pipe, and some have other older materials. The camera shows exactly what you have and where it's failing.

Should I scope the sewer before listing my house?

It's a good idea for an older home. Knowing the condition ahead of time keeps a buyer's inspection from turning into a last-minute negotiation.

Do you offer discounts?

We offer a military discount on plumbing and drain work (not excavation). Current coupons are posted on our coupons page.

What are your hours?

Monday through Friday, 8 to 5, with weekends by appointment. We don't offer 24-hour emergency service.
